Chelsea ready to flex financial muscles with Real Madrid for this midfielder

Ahead of the January transfer window, Chelsea have been named as one of the top clubs alongside Real Madrid, who are in the race to sign Jude Bellingham from German club Borussia Dortmund.

The report revealed they Blues are willing to flex financial muscles with the Los Blancos to sign Bellingham.

A report via SportBILD claim Chelsea are ready to rival Real Madrid by promising Dortmund a payment of more than €100 million for the English midfielder.

Chelsea’s offer is quite a fortune for a 19-year-old, who joined Dortmund a little over two years ago.

The Blues and any other team interested in Bellingham will have to break the bank to lure the midfielder from the Bundesliga, as Dortmund are determined to keep hold of the player.

If Dortmund agree to sell the midfielder, they are likely to hold out for a much higher figure than €100 million.

A recent report has already claimed that the Los Blancos have a whopping €425 million budget ahead of the 2023 summer transfer window as they intend to also sign Kylian Mbappe from French side PSG.
